Lyrics
Shine a Little Light
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Do you feel like you're the only one living on a prayer?
Have you ever tried to love someone who wasn't even there?
No one really knows
Where it goes from here
But we all decompose
And slowly disappear
If evil lays his hands on me
Shine a little light on my soul
Show me things I cannot see
Shine a little light on my soul
Go to places that you used to go
But they don't feel the same
See the faces that you used to know
But they forget your name
No one really knows
Where it goes from here
But we all decompose
And slowly disappear
If evil lays his hands on me
Shine a little light on my soul
Show me things I cannot see
Shine a little light on my soul
If evil lays his hands on me
Shine a little light on my soul
I'm waiting, praying, patiently
Shine a little light on my soul
